Penned amidst the turmoil of the American Civil War, this beautiful carol reminds us of the hope to come. It’s in the key of C, played fingerstyle from the C position. There are some tricky fingerings, so follow the instruction closely to learn the strategy!

It’s set! My New Year Resolution is to be able to play this by next year. Great arrangement @BanjoBen!

Just found this, what a beautiful arrangement! Your fingerstyle version is lovely, Ben - hybrid and flatpick seem to work also with a couple slight adaptations. Thanks!
